Study Notes

Colonialism: A Typology and its Manifestations

Colonialism, as defined by the American Historical Association, refers to foreign intrusion or domination. It has taken various forms throughout history, often driven by the motivations and interests of the colonizers. In this article, we will explore a typology of colonialism and its manifestations, based on the examples provided by the American Historical Association and the article "A Typology of Colonialism" by Donna T. Haverty-Stacke.

Settler Colonialism

Settler colonialism is characterized by large-scale migration of settlers who claim land and eventually become the majority in the colonized region. This form of colonialism often involves a "logic of elimination," where the original inhabitants are attempted to be "engineered out" of existence, except in nostalgia. Examples of settler colonialism include the British colonies in North America, such as Canada, the United States, Australia, and New Zealand.

Planter Colonialism

Planter colonialism involves the mass production of a single crop, such as sugar, coffee, cotton, or rubber. Despite being a minority, members of the ruling class are often part of an empire that enables their political, legal, and administrative control.

Extractive Colonialism

Extractive colonialism is driven by the desire to exploit natural resources in the colonized region, such as oil, minerals, or other valuable resources. This form of colonialism often inspires competition between empires to amass territory ahead of the other.

Not-in-My-Backyard Colonialism

Not-in-My-Backyard colonies are established primarily as a wasteland for depositing convicts or as a place for unwanted individuals. These colonies are often seen as empty places that are not desired by other empires for settlement.

Legal Colonialism

Legal colonialism involves one people claiming independent or superior legal authority in another's territory. This can be achieved through diplomacy or by force.

Rogue Colonialism

Rogue colonialism is not state-sanctioned but can still involve the colonization of foreign territory by filibusters or private companies. The state may follow to protect and claim such interlopers as its own or to prevent diplomatic crises.

Missionary Colonialism

Missionary colonialism involves private agents, such as missionaries, who need native people for their existence. This form of colonialism is distinct from other forms due to its religious and cultural aspects.

Romantic Colonialism

Romantic colonialism is driven by a desire for adventure, escape, or a contrast between the colonizer's environment and culture with that of the colonized region.

These forms of colonialism illustrate the diversity of motivations and practices that have underpinned European expansion and colonization throughout history. Each form of colonialism has its unique characteristics and impacts on the colonized peoples and their societies. Understanding this typology can provide valuable insight into the history and nature of European colonialism and its legacies.
